The Strongest Assassin Reincarnates in Another World



If the mana wasn't around his neck then where was it?

Maelis had mentioned that it wasn't necessary there, but it was supposed to be close but as he explored the area of his neck.

He stayed in the darkness unable to find this little blue ball of energy that Maelis had talked about.

"I can't find it," said Aiden keeping himself in a meditative state not moving any other muscle except his mouth.

"Try to look around your abdomen, it should be around there," announced Maelis as she was almost sure that it was going to be there.

Aiden listened and started to look at where his abdomen was located but once again he couldn't find his mana.

"It's still not there," said Aiden, deciding not to listen to Maelis anymore as he simply started to explore the darkness areas inside his body.

·ƈθm Maelis said something to him, but he simply ignored it.

As he started exploring what was inside him, he started hearing some weird noise.

It seemed to be some sort of metallic noise that kept resounding.

*CLING*

*CLING*

*CLING*

Intrigued, he started to advance toward the noise and the scene in front of him completely shocked him.

He was now looking around his heart and he could see chains that seemed to completely surround his heart.

Right next to his heart, there seemed to be many things locked. Aiden couldn't recognize most of the things that were chained as he simply had no idea about what they were.

There were some weird purple energy, some blue energy, and some black energy. 

There were even what seemed to be solid materials right next to his heart.

Not knowing if he could tell Maelis about his discovery, he decided to ignore the things that surrounded the chains and simply asked Maelis what to do as he had finally found his small ball of blue mana.

It was covered by chains but it wasn't as bad as the other energies that were present there.

"I think I found it," said Aiden not realizing that he had spent almost five minutes in complete silence exploring his interior body.

Maelis was panicking when Aiden stopped talking to her but she quickly became calm once she realized that he was simply concentrating.

And she was right, for the last five minutes he hadn't even noticed her voice speaking to him. 

The realization that he wasn't as simple as he expected kind of shocked him and even more questions started to appear inside of his mind.

He wanted to know why there were metal chains inside of him.

'How did the previous owner of this body have this?'

'Was this why he wasn't able to awaken?'

But then his thoughts were interrupted when Maelis answered him.

"Where is it situated?" 

Aiden hesitated to tell the truth, but he decided to do so as he didn't want to take any risk so close to his heart.

Maybe the methods would change depending on where the mana was situated and it was best for him to tell the truth.

"It's around my heart."

"Your heart? Are you sure?" asked Maelis in a tone that didn't seem exactly happy about the news.

"Yeah, I'm sure it's around there," confirmed Aiden as he didn't understand the change in her tone.

"Well, there's bad news and good news which one do you want?" asked Maelis as she noticed that Aiden seemed to come out of his meditative state as he opened his eyes.

"Just tell me, I don't care," answered Aiden not wanting to lose time and he simply wanted his answer.

"The positive is that your mana will be more powerful which will increase the power of your skills, which means that the effects of your skills will be different than what the system tells you most of the time."

"But, the negative is that you will have a lot less mana than others as the heart cannot hold much of it."

She said that really fast, but Aiden quickly understood everything that came out of her mouth as it was very important to him.

"So that means that I won't be able to use skills that require a lot of mana?" asked Aiden as he tried to understand better what this meant.

"Well, not necessarily but it will probably be better for you to concentrate on skills that are not mana dependant."

Aiden nodded.

He didn't find this news too disturbing as he is already used to fighting without even using mana. This was simply a bonus for him.

The fact that he didn't even use mana before already proved that.

"Well, it's not that bad, the skills that do use mana will be even better," said Aiden seemingly not taking this whole thing as a big thing.

"Then, if you understand do you want to finish learning how to use mana?"

"Oh, right," said Aiden as he once again entered his meditative state.

"After finding your mana, the system should have given you access to it. It normally sends you a message."

And she was right, as she said that, the system released a beeping sound inside of Aiden's mind.

*BEEP*

[You can now use Mana.]

The blue ball that was on the side of the chains started to separate itself and slowly started advancing toward one of his hands.

Then he opened his eyes and the Mana flowed into the [Mental Transmitor] as it changed color and became blue.

Even the form of the [Mental Transmitor] changed and he could hear the voice of Maelis coming from the other side of it as she also held it close to her mouth.

After verifying that everything was working fine and that they would be able to contact themselves, Aiden quickly left her office since Maelis told him that his rewards should be coming in about a day or two.

Well, except for the Mercenary, it would probably take longer.

After leaving her office, Aiden was now going toward the training grounds because he was intrigued by what the guard had said when he had first arrived.
